I would like to tftp Cisco router configs to my FreeBSD box. Do I need 
to touch the file first, then chmod 666 before I tftp, or can tftpd be 
setup to create the file if it does not exist ? I am able to tftp 
without creating the file first in AIX, but the man page in BSD tftp 
says that the file must exist. Is this a "feature" ??

Thanks,
Bob/
